Hi,
>What do you think about this request?
In general, I think we should try to honor this request, cymru does useful
work and it is a valid application of the data that we have.
On the technical side, I wonder why they need a BGP feed. This will be
multihop BGP over a large number of intermediate nodes, with all stability
issues related to that. It would also involve peerings with all RRC's. OTOH,
the raw data does have the same info, is already downloadable, and does not
suffer from stability problems. I might miss something here.
I do think that we should set them up. If we do, I think we should ask them
to put appropriate credtis on their site. We should also ask them, when they
present, to tell people to peer with us. And, obviously, we can give a link
to them from our site.
Henk
